MotoGP will race in Valencia until 2031. A new contract confirms the Circuit Ricardo Tormo as host of five more Grands Prix, from 2027 until 2031 inclusive.
Valencia provides an incredible amphitheatre atmosphere, where every seat in the house offers a near full view of every apex for the hundreds of thousands of fans who come to see the most exciting sport on Earth.
The circuit is also a paddock favourite with fantastic organisation and promotion, making the most of its position close to one of Europe’s most culturally rich cities.
For all that and more, Valencia has won the Best Grand Prix award a number of times, and will almost certainly compete for the award again until 2031 thanks to this new contract.
Carlos Mazón, President of the Generalitat Valenciana: “Thank you for your commitment to Valencia. I think it’s a safe bet! There is no other Grand Prix that hangs the sold out sign up as far in advance as Valencia. Here there is a huge fandom, a love of motorsport, for motorcycling. It’s fundamental for Valencia, for Cheste, for the province of Valencia and for the Valencian Community. This renewal comes in a context of greater competitiveness than ever and we were always convinced that we had the winning card. The great differential, apart from these magnificent facilities and team, is the fans.
“I also don’t want to fail to mention the economic impact MotoGP has, and when we are working on recovery – not only emotional recovery, but economic recovery. And with fans behind us like the ones we have, the winning card is there. I want to congratulate you all: the entire Valencian motorcycling family, the Spanish motorcycling family and that of the entire world, which will now once again have one of the circuits, and if I may, the circuit with the most soul and after this last year even more, that it can offer to this great sport.”
Nicolás Collado, General Manager of the Circuit Ricardo Tormo: “This is the best news we could bring to the Circuit Ricardo Tormo, that we’re in 2025 and we can guarantee the Valencia GP until at least 2031. For the circuit, it’s a great source of pride as we know this means that we have been doing things well for the past 25 years. We’re very grateful for the support of the Valencia government which supports us and MotoGP. Motorcycling has deep roots in Valencian society. We’re also very grateful to Dorna and MotoGP, after a year without a Grand Prix due to the floods, they’ve been supporting us and now we’re working on the reconstruction to create the best Valencia GP ever in November.”
Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of MotoGP rights holder Dorna Sports: “We are very happy to announce our future in Valencia. The track is unique with the view it offers to the spectators, and the fans make it unique for us with the incredible atmosphere they create. It is always full of people, the promoter does a fantastic job, and we’re proud to be able to keep delivering a spectacle that rewards their passion for the sport. After what happened in 2024, we hope our return for another five Grands Prix underlines our longer term commitment to Valencia too. We’re looking forward to coming back this season, and to celebrating more fantastic Grands Prix until 2031.”
